From serums to cleansers and more, these beauty and skincare products help you look your best in online meetings and virtual events.
The month of April has been all about online meetings for me. Also, we’re actually practicing a “video on” policy at work. This is why the products I gravitated to for the past month had something to do with being in front of my laptop screen.
Without further ado, here are my April favorites!
10. Bagful of Glam DewDrop Facial Cleanser and Massager
Thanks to this skincare product, I don’t mind going barefaced to my early morning online meetings. I use it before going to bed, and my face feels instantly clean after. What I love about this device is its shape, which allows me to easily navigate around my face. Also, it features seven different vibration speed levels and comes in many fun colors.
Price: P1,470
Where to Buy: bagful.shop and Shopee
9. Happy Skin Clean Slate Moisturizing Hand Purifying Spray
Alcohol is a necessity—now more than ever. As a matter of fact, we have different alcohol bottles stationed in different areas of the house. When it comes to the bottle that’s right beside me, it’s this. Plus, the lavender scent smells so good and it does not dry my hands.
Price: P159
Where to Buy: happyskincosmetics.com, Lazada and BeautyMNL
8. La Mer The Treatment Lotion
My mom gave me this sample size to try. She loves it, and now I know why. It instantly hydrates my skin! I honestly couldn’t help myself from touching my skin because it feels so soft. No wonder this product is often called “liquid energy”!
Price: P5,900 for 100ml, P8,200 for 150ml
Where to Buy: rustans.com
7. Happy Skin Rescue Me Sun Gel Primer
In addition to all the good stuff—hyaluronic acid, ceramides, and SPF 50 PA+++, this gel sunscreen and primer duo has anti-blue light technology that helps minimize damage caused by prolonged screen time. Perfect for an entire day of online meetings, right?
Price: P799
Where to Buy: happyskincosmetics.com, Lazada, and BeautyMNL
6. Issy & Co. Brow and Lash Serum
I’ve been using this serum consistently for a month now, and I’ve seen growth on my lashes, especially the lower ones. I also like how applying this feels like applying liquid liner—which I need practice on. By the way, this beauty product comes with a brow tint in ash, brown, or clear. But I personally prefer the clear one because of my already bushy brows.
Price: 349
Where to Buy: Lazada, Shopee, and BeautyMNL
5. Shiseido Synchro Skin Radiant Lifting Foundation
True to its name and thanks to its innovative light-adjusting technology, this foundation is all about radiance. Now, this product is something I need for my online meetings! My skin looks so healthy and fresh, and it really shows on camera. Plus, this foundation is such a dream to blend.
Price: P3,000
Where to Buy: rustans.com and Lazada
4. MAC Extra Dimension Blush in Under My Plum (Black Cherry Collection)
Ah, this blush! It’s honestly so hard to describe how the blush looks when applied. But MAC really hit the nail on its head by calling it Extra Dimension. It’s just so beautiful on the cheeks! Plus, this beauty product can work as an eyeshadow as well. And finally, its beautiful packaging demands a place in one’s vanity.
Price: P2,050
Where to Buy: rustans.com and Lazada
3. Clocheflame All-Around Flush in Bask
Online meetings call for multi-use products because you have to be able to get ready in a short amount of time. This is why I love using this beauty product on my eyes—whether on its own, as a base, or on my cheeks for a flushed look. It has a doe-foot applicator for more control and precision in application.
Price: P389
Where to Buy: Lazada and Shopee
2. Colourette Colourglaze in Daydream
I’m falling in love with lip gloss all over again because of this! I love the minty scent, which makes applying it so much better. It adds a lovely shine—whether worn on its own or on top of a lip product. Whenever I know I’ll be presenting during a meeting, I use this product because it commands attention. Also, if you’re looking for a plumping gloss, this one’s for you.
Price: P349
Where to Buy: Shopee, Lazada, and BeautyMNL
1. NARS Air Matte Blush in Rush
What I appreciate about this blush is how buildable it is. When I’m in a hurry to do my makeup, I grab this one because I know I’ll be able to control the pigmentation. That way, I won’t have too much color all over my cheeks. Plus, there’s just something so fabulous about using products that come in a pot.
Price: P1,800
Where to Buy: rustans.com and NARS Beauty Butler
And there you go! These are my beauty favorites for the month of April. See you again next month!
